Monochrome Madness – Banyule Flats in black and white
After showing some photos last week of Banyule Flats in infrared I thought maybe I should show you some normal images that are black and white of the same area. I have chosen photos of […]
Monochrome Madness – First images taken in Infrared
I first got my infrared camera in 2017, well I had my old Nikon 300s converted to infrared. I wasn’t using the camera anymore and it seemed like a good idea. I don’t regret it […]
Monochrome Madness – A Melbourne Bridge
When my friends arrived from the US I spent one day with Anne around the city. I asked what she wanted to see and she said a bridge that I photograph a lot. I can’t […]
Monochrome Madness – Trees in Infrared
When I was in Tasmania I did a lot of infrared photography. I’ve told you this before, however one subject I loved photographing were trees. They look so good in infrared. I have put together […]
Monochrome Madness – The abstractness of it all
This is a quick post, sorry, but I have really hurt my right wrist, no idea how, so I can’t spend time typing too much. I have three images for you today. Two I have […]
Monochrome Madness – The lower cacades at Taggerty

Monochrome Madness – Capturing Dragons
This is another one from the archives. It was taken in 2015 down at Rosebud at a place that the locals call Dragon’s Head. It really does look like a dragon’s head, don’t you think? […]

Monochrome Madness – ON1 and Photoshop
I’ve been going through older photos and looking for ones that I can convert to Monochrome. I have a massive catalogue of images and one of the problems is sometimes where to start. For some […]
Monochrome Madness – Sculptures along a freeway
This is another image that I have shown before in colour. I have always wondered how it would look in monochrome, so here it is. I do want to work on images from scratch, but […]
Monochrome Madness – From colour to monochrome

Christmases Past – Monochrome Madness a touch a colour
One of the things we used to do with Monochrome Madness each month we would also do a challenge. In 2014, I think it was we had a challenge that was about doing a monochrome […]
